I think we should call it, "your grave!"

I still remember the first secret santa events on reddit. Some of the best internet times in history imo.

The saddest part is it didn't need to be.

Imagine if, instead of going for an IPO and all this, they operated it as a non-profit? If they just tried to be a cool place for users, like it was for 10 or 15 years already.

Instead they have to drain the blood out of it and sell it for parts and wonder why it died.

Same here. I only browse it every now and then to get away from the hyper politics on Lemmy (either extremes are not good for the psyche).
But the quality on reddit is staggeringly low.
The comments don't have the vibe like on lemmy.
I wouldnt call it "hollow" but it's close or adjacent to it. Maybe superficial?
Too bad the non-political/non-technical communities are kinda dead here :/

With a dull, rusty, red hot spoon.

Whispering slurs from your mom's basement don't help.

Bros we need a better lemmy plan.

More content. And making spez super sad and poor.

Someone needs to build a Firefox extension to periodically poll best content from subreddits they like and automatically repost to lemmy. Automatically.
So there are tons more content on lemmy. U get it?

Not self hosted docker - most people won't bother setting up residential proxies and fight bans, no - just a real browser, simple extension and simple settings, with legit ublock and auto reposting to lemmy. This way people don't have to do shit and content would just transfer.

It's fair use because it's for ai.

This will make spez sad and poorer. Let's do this

Came here to say something similar. Already deleted my account. This just reminds me not to browse either.

Because they paid bank for a data deal with Reddit a little while back so they're damn well gonna try to make that money back with your clicks.

DuckDuckGo. AI only if you ask for it. Actual results. It’s like 2007 google

Stop using google.

Reminder that Steve Huffman is greedy little pig boy

Yeah. But let's not just do this. It's pointless cursing. Hit them where it hurts, spread word about lemmy, create posts on Lemmy. More content, more users on lemmy

To me, it died when they allowed users to hide their post and comment history. Enables bots and bad faith behavior.

they aspire to be facebook 2.0, which is mostly bots now, besides the propaganda.

i've tried to create communities both with my piefed account and my old one but i don't know how. i guess I'm not able to

I would argue that Lemmy.world has even more strict rules than reddit. At least it seems like that sometimes. Certain topics are just deleted.

I think Lemmy is decent for memes and entertainment but I dont think it can serve as a proper discussion site. The moderation wouldnt work. Unpaid moderators cant keep this place open for good discussions because it requires too much effort. But its good for memes. I like Lemmy in that way. Its positive and fun.

who gets to keep being a customer

Reddit's users are products not customers.

got a lot of accounts banned for ban evation. I can keep making new ones, create a couple of shitposts and you got enough karma to continue where you left

I don't know, I think letting your unpaid product managers have a little bit of leeway in curating the product line probably isn't the most irrational decision, otherwise they'd have to have to review the decisions and make policies and that'd take paid employees or development.

Dreadful man

I don’t get the purpose of banning people… let them be downvoted into oblivion if necessary

Same applies to removing comments…

Why creating a forum if you can’t discuss? Why creating a forum if you can’t have any nuanced opinion?

It’s pointless. Do people like circle jerks?

I don’t get it, I too hate certain point of views but I‘m a mature person and accept that people have different opinions. Or there are assholes everywhere, let users deal with that. Let them spit some cuss words and downvote the assholes!

Yeah came to say the same. I have a few subreddits I still lurk in because lemmy doesn't have the largest communities on that topic yet. I imagine it is only a matter of time before old reddit is gone.

How much are you posting about RVs and sailing on Lemmy?

Hey man! I just bought a used travel trailer. I pick it up in a week and a half. We still have to sit down with the sales guy for the final extended warranty pitch. Two questions:

1. Are the extended warranties offered by the dealership worth it? I would assume anything major that goes wrong will happen on the road and i'll be stuck getting repairs done in Iowa or some shit.

2. Do you have any experience with harvest hosts? Is it easy to use and worth the cost? Hows the host availability.

I got a 21ft geo pro. Probably too big for a lot of boondocking, but i still plan to boondock it as much as possible. I dont love the idea of always being at KOAs and such.

It only works on some things. You'll still get the pop-up sometimes, even through old.

Agreed. I was all confused AF until I realized that people don’t automatically use it, or using the auto-redirect apps that help prevent New Reddit from ever showing its face.
